I just ordered some seeds from this company, I have learned one thing
recently... the seeds at the local hardware store suck.

So buy some seeds from people who sell them for survival purposes.
These guys come recommended from someone I trust so they are probably
good.

Anyway, if things get tough, people start gardening. In the old days
they called it a Victory Garden.

the idea here is that you don't depend on others, but instead depend
on your self. one way to do that is grow your own.

I got the seeds, they are well packed in airtight foil. Good quality packaging. I haven't planted any though, the idea is to keep for for when we need them.

This shows where we are and where we are going, it will get you
thinking. History repeats itself. It won't be the same but might be
similar.

This is a good overview for people with short attention spans.

You need an extra pair of glasses for emergencies....

One for the retreat location, one for the bug out bag, one to leave at
home if the bugout is unsuccessful.

If you lost your glasses during hurricane katrina, when do you thing
you got a new pair?

Check these guys out, prices ARE CHEAP(nuts really) but feedback of
people who have used them are excellent.
